All-or-nothingness is a state that I can relate to; but it's so exhausting! A bit of this and a bit of that can be more productive.<BR/><BR/>I'm happy for you -- about making the breakthrough on your story.Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02375981493145612394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027621747663402662.post-13083196384788286312008-07-04T14:28:00.000-04:002008-07-04T14:28:00.000-04:00by the byeit is supposed to be a blurry misty bunn...by the bye<BR/><BR/>it is supposed to be a blurry misty bunny spirit leaping through, or rising through, the flowers.Taffinyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00961088325369065690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027621747663402662.post-63506519183573092062008-07-04T14:27:00.000-04:002008-07-04T14:27:00.000-04:00Paul,Thanks :)No no slacker...the point was someti...Paul,<BR/><BR/>Thanks :)<BR/><BR/>No no slacker...the point was sometimes it is good to not work on it, sometimes it can be a way of moving forward in your work. So perhaps, sneakily right now, while you think you are just hanging out at the pool with your family, you are actually also taking a giant leap forward in your writing. Moving past some block you thought a cement blockade. Maybe those nachos pack dynamite? Maybe not...but maybe.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Alyson,<BR/><BR/>Thanks. <BR/> Yeah I think that was it, I was mentally psyching myself out, getting scared. When I am unsure of what I am doing, I tend to freak out and run screaming from a task. (big and important or tiny and meaningless), I just get really nervous when I am uncertain/clueless. <BR/><BR/>I hadn't intentionally tried to step back, because I was afraid if I did, then wimpy me would never go back to it, never work through it. That is great that you have realized that and can employ it. I am just grateful that the other task happened and this did work out.<BR/><BR/> I guess it can be like those Chinese handcuffs, I had to stop pulling so hard trying to make it happen and just relax. But calm flow is not an atmosphere that I am good at creating for myself to write in. I don't know if I could intentionally do it.Taffinyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00961088325369065690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027621747663402662.post-10944923978599405052008-07-03T12:45:00.000-04:002008-07-03T12:45:00.000-04:00I know the feeling well! Sometimes when I feel so...I know the feeling well! Sometimes when I feel so overwhelmed I start thinking that I should just give up and go write another story, but if I just take a step back and not try to think so hard it starts to flow again.
